Notes

  • Nutritional information is an estimate, not a guarantee.  
  • You can easily steam or boil your cauliflower on the stove for 5 to 8 minutes, or until fork-tender.
  • To preserve nutrients, steaming is preferred to boiling if you choose not to roast. 
  • Make the day before your holiday dinner and store in an airtight container overnight without garnishes. Garnish once you remove from refrigerator and reheat the recipe in the oven or microwave. 
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in your refrigerator up to 4 days. 
  • Leftovers may also be frozen in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Once ready to use, remove from freezer and defrost on your countertop. Once defrosted, reheat recipe in saucepan with a little milk or water. On the other hand, you can also reheat in the microwave.
